What you need to know about in-game purchases - The Basics
In-game purchases are now very common among players of all ages. What most gamers probably don't realise is that video game companies use behavioural psychology to heavily stimulate their customers before they even decide to make an in-game purchase. Mobile games played on phones and tablets, and in particular 'free-to-play' downloadable games, are currently leading the way in terms of monetisation. But how is it possible that a product that is free to download and play can, in fact, generate... -

Crime Boss: Rockay City Launch Trailer
Get another look at a lot of yesterday's biggest stars.
A launch trailer came out today for Crime Boss: Rockay City. If you don't know about this game, I can't say I really blame you. As far as I know, the only thing we heard about this game previously was when it was announced during The Game Awards last December.
I haven't seen any news about this. I haven't seen previews about this game. In fact, they still haven't really shown off just what you're even doing in this... -

Generation Zero Turns 4 as Devs Promise More Years to Come
The open-world action game has come a long way since release.
When Generation Zero launched four years back, it sure left a lot to be desired. The game felt mechanically clunky and there were a myriad of other issues that just left a bit of a sour taste in a lot of players' mouths. Since that release, developer Systemic Reaction has released numerous updates, fixes, and quite a bit of additional content (some free, some paid) that have pushed the game to sitting at a comfy "Mostly... -

Elden Ring Update Adds Extremely Subtle Ray Tracing to PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series
The latest patch adds in some graphical eye candy for those that can run it.
